Typical over hyped reality show with guns and explosions. Was okay to watch for the hardware is all. And it won't be back for another season unless something changes.

Yes I read something a out this too. According to their wiki page, They couldn't prove a chain of custody for 10 registered machine gun receivers. So Will lost his FFL but Joe, Vince and Steph opened a new LLC with a similar name and became officers of the company. Will is just the founder/ proprietor. A sort of figurehead. Joe and Vince are majority partners.

I've talked to one of the "cast members", and for sure 95% of the conflicts, imagined deadlines, and grumpy Will is written for the show. He isn't a bad guy, unless acting like a prick for money makes you a bad guy - and a lot of actors do that.[/quote]

Every "reality" tv show out there turns out the same. Seems like we need drama these days to keep us watching. :roll:

I liked watching SOGs, even having to sort through a little drama. Hell, thats what DVR is for :D . Now, Vince has his own shop, and magically has a pile of SOCOM barrels that redjacket can't find.... Hmmmm...

... and divines up a firing pin for a completely obscure recoiless rifle? If Jimmy Super Fly Snuka comes flying out of a tree and takes Kris out with a folding chair at the end of the season finale it would not be a stretch. Again.. it's a show about guns, stuff blows up good... turn off your brain, crack a PBR and dig in to a bag of spicy pork rinds and just wallow in it for an hour or so.

I quit watching the show, between putting a shotgun on an AR because "it's neva been done befo", making a tacticool tommygun and putting a claymore (which was fake because there's no way in hell they acquired a real claymore) inside of a vehicle. Just too much stupidity and making gun owners look bad IMO.

EDIT: I almost forgot the M2 that he built that wouldn't even cycle

With the right ATF license real claymores are entirely possible to acquire. Justa saying... :D
Nothing to see here. Continue swimming.

Yup...I stopped into the shop while I was in BR in January....nice folks let me take a look around and get my picture taken with the cast members while I was there....and I just stopped in unannounced because I was in the area....this isn't a storefront either, just a mfg. facility with a front office....sure beats another same old same old reality show

All I bought was a t-shirt

Who did you talk to? When & where? No cast member would admit that & keep their job

I'm almost thinking that Will's Louisiana accent is fake. Or his is just an insincere schmuck...His accent sounds like he's working too hard at that Twang.
